I'm so glad Isaac is back playing, what a defensive sequence

I just want JI to make it to the first Spurs game. Wemby will be confused at how someone can actually guard him

Good to see the instincts are still there defensively for JI.

Harris is playing well tonight at least.

Gary Harris making plays defensively lol

Cole is a good player in the perfect role for himself. Just get buckets against backups.

Isaac looks back to prime defensive form

Second unit looks solid. They kind of have 4 shooters and Issac who is streaky. I kind of dig it.

Seeing him walk back into the block on Val was like watching the only player-controlled player on the court. Everyone else just had no awareness.

Good job Cole.

This Pelicans 2nd unit tonight is not very good because of all their injuries.

The Magic have a deep group and should be able to wear on some of the not so deep benches out there.

Honestly it doesn't seem that the teams are adjusting, he seem completely sluggish and out of it. He's not aggressive at all and unaware of what his defender is doing. That's not normally like him.

Lets hope for 70+ games of that this season

You guys are talking about field goals, but the real story is Cole's rebounding numbers are going to take a hit playing next to JI. :lol:

I'm curious if we are really going to run the full second unit in our rotations. I can't imagine we will.

Steele : there are two #1 picks playing tonight Banchero and Zion

Even he disrespects Fultz

Harris! Aight, I'm sold
